COLORADO COACH- WINTER 2018 FROM THE SPORT PRESIDENTS (same site of the clinic). This is a change to previous years as the meeting used to take place the week after the clinic. Speaking of the clinic hopefully you have made arrangements to attend the track and field clinic on January 26th and 27th . Attending the clinic has always been a great way to network with fellow coaches, visit with vendors, continue to learn, and overall geek out on track and field. I am excited for the scheduled line-up as we are bringing in many new speakers who have not yet presented to the association. The current schedule for the clinic is below. Besides an outstanding speaker line- up, we also will have our best vendor line-up ever including a few new vendors. I encourage you and your staff to attend as we continue to get better as a coaching community. Looking forward to the upcoming season. Feel free to reach out about any questions you may have related to the sports of Track and Field/Cross Country. Good luck to your teams this season.
